If Classic would send me the rest of my parts that I paid for I'd have lots to do. If I'm not careful my wife will find something for me to do. I hate painting!!

DUANE - - --
DON'T YOU HAVE A COBRA TO POLISH OR SOMETHING ??? Y' ALL HAVE A REALLY GREAT DAY. BLACKJACK |
Art,
Sorry about your wows with Classic Roadsters. I hear it is a sticky mess there now. Looks like I got ride of mine in the nick of time. Now back to nothing. I have too much to do to just do nothing. Can't make "NO MONEY" doing nothing. |
:confused:
BTW who is Hi-per Rods? Are they new or I just have not noticed:confused: :confused: :JEKYLHYDE |
NOTHING....................is what's still sitting in my garage - and it's almost spring! This could be a long summer with NOTHING to drive. I may have to add some more Dinan go-fast goodies to the Bimmer to tide me over. ....Or sell it and get the Cobra! :CRY:
|
I'm in....
...actually, for once, I have no opinion concerning this thread. Empty, null, void, devoid of any substance, a vacuum.....
Damn, c'mon Spring time! |
Are we there yet?

STEVE,
I THINK NOT. THAT REMINDS ME OF THE STORY OF RENE DES CARTES, THE 17TH CENTURY MATHMETICIAN AND PHILOSOPHER. DES CARTES WALKED INTO A BAR AND THE BARTENDER ASKED, "CAN I GET YOU A DRINK ?" DES CARTES RESPONDED, " I THINK NOT" - - - - - - AND, "POOF", HE DISAPPEARED. I'M SORRY - - I JUST COULDN'T RESIST IT. PERHAPS THE SAME FATE AWAITS THIS THREAD - - AND FOR THE SAME REASON. (COGNITO ERGO SUM). Y'ALL HAVE A REALLY GREAT DAY, BLACKJACK |
LOL!

Hey Blackjack
Hi Blackjack,
Yeah, I saw the thread and just had to look up the word and its origin... As for the Cobra, taking a break from making some engine/camshaft changes ALL this last weekend. ... a little Fine Tuning now for my driving taste. Seems like I do much less polishing with my curent plain silver car with dull black components vs. my last car which was mirror black and chrome components. i.e. less chrome, and more focus on function and driving performance this time around. See Ya. :) |
Well I came over here to do something about nothing. That is to say I am increasing my post count...:D I'm still torqued about losing over 300 of them a couple months ago..:CRY: :3DSMILE: :3DSMILE:
Hersh:) |
Post Count?
What's a post count? |
Oh, that :LOL: :D :LOL: :3DSMILE:
|
I may have to ask several hundred times, but what is a post count?:D
(once) |
Rick,
It refers to the number of bed posts you have seen in your lifetime:3DSMILE: |
uh ohh here we go, no longer talking about nothing. Now we have something. We have to stop this before it gets out of hand.
Blackjack, You are just to funny, & hey I didn't have to get out my seventeenth century dictionary! |
